So many different sounds and styles.
So many different ways to praise Jesus.
In the last few weeks Jean and I have experienced a wide array of different worship experiences.
In Pastor Zake's church in Swaziland, African worship was a "total being" experience.
Back in Baton Rouge it was an immersion into praise with the voices and songs of our dear friends.
In Sydney, Australia it was an explosion of Hillsong music, Delirious! worship and praise, and Alvin Slaughter's powerful voice extolling Jesus.
At the Commissioning Service for new missionaries in Springfield, Missouri, we heard the familiar sounds of the churches we grew up in.
Mile after mile of Bill Gaither CD's on our car stereo.
And tomorrow we'll be with our friends at Cowboy Church in Henrietta, Texas--yet another style of profound worship of God.
All styles different. All flowing from deep wells and lifting the worshipers into God's presence.
Makes me think what it must be like for God to hear it all. Must be like an orchestra--all different sounds blending in a global concert of praise to Him.
I love it!

While in Missouri on this long trip, we were priviledged to visit with Bob and Ramona Dicks. We sat in their living room listening to music straight from heaven--Ramona playing the piano and singing the songs the Holy Spirit gives her that sound so much like Hebrew Music must have sounded when David wrote the Psalms.
Remember? We just sat there with tears rolling down our faces and dripping off our chins...
